What drives eviction risk in Little Italy
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.4/10. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Against Niagara County at 40.9%, 49% of renters here are cost-burdened. At $627 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Niagara Falls commands. Against the Niagara County average of 6.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 88% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $72,404, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
